Nigeria awaits Arsenal August 5

The encounter was organised by Danjan Sports, whose spokesperson told the press that they would soon announce Arsenal’s challenger on the pitch when they arrive the West African country but the probability is high that they would take on the Super Eagles.

"We are working on the opposition and once that is finalised we will announce it to the public in conjunction with the London club," David Omigie of DanJan Sports said.

"Nigeria is the most populous country in Africa, and the club with arguably the biggest fan base in the country is visiting in August."

“This is the beginning of big things between the club and the continent of Africa”
